"Look, I don't want to lie to you, I prefer to tell you the truth when I can. And if you don't believe it, you can't know what I feel. The same old lies."
🌸

She felt her stomach drop, the unpleasant feeling of irritation and embarrassment. Why did Uzui Tengen like to make things so difficult?

Tanjiro and Inosuke ran to the window, but Zenitsu didn't move a muscle and he was also wondering if he stopped breathing and for how long.

"Hey, Zenitsu; he's your boyfriend." Tanjiro said as if it were an incredibly unprecedented revelation.

The blonde mumbled a small "He's NOT my boyfriend." So low and practically inaudible that his two friends didn't hear him.

Why, of all days, had Uzui decided to come and make a fuss in front of his house today? It wasn't because of him, that must be impossible, they were just casual friends and he was more than sure that if they distanced themselves he wouldn't present any problem. Of course, the incessant text messages should give him an idea that this would not be possible, Tengen would not let him go easily.

His thoughts were interrupted when Uzui's own voice rang out again from the street. Zenitsu flinched at the mention of his name.
The wooden floor creaked under his weight as he got to his feet.

"You hurt my heart then you left. Love Of My Life, don't you see? Come back now, come back now, don't get away from me anymore because you don't know what it means to me." Uzui sang, some people walking on the sidewalk came to see her show.

"I didn't know they were fighting." Tanjiro commented.

"We are not..."

"Will he be drunk?" Inosuke picked his nose disinterestedly.

Uzui's sweater was barely enough to cover him and in his hands he played the old guitar that Suma was trying to learn music on giving the blond a reminder that the instrument worked amazingly, what made it sound so ugly was Suma. A passing woman dropped some coins on the guitar case like Tengen was some street performer.

"It is not." Zenitsu responded with his gaze fixed on the man looking sorry for others in front of his building. "He just likes to get attention."

Why of course this was some kind of weird joke on the man's part, because he was always this ridiculous and outlandish. It wasn't about Zenitsu or why she was singing a heartbreak song in front of him.
A part of him wondered if these were the ones Suma was referring to when Uzui tried to apologize.

But Uzui only liked Queen, being flashy to the point of public scandal and especially playing practical jokes on her.

Those were his logical reasons, so he forced himself to get off his cloud where Uzui sang love songs for him and only for him because that couldn't be possible.

Her arm rested on the window frame and her cheek rested on his hand.

"You will always remember, when the end approaches and all this is left behind, I will be by your side reminding you that I still love you." Uzui yelled, followed by his acoustic guitar solo.

The blond couldn't help his astonishment. To be just an improvisation, that handling of the guitar was incredible and neat, obviously the instrument was not the problem. Of course, he sometimes forgot that this albino is a master of fine arts. For something...for something he liked him so much. A sigh escaped from his lips.

"Isn't that being dramatic?" She questioned Inosuke again with a half eaten banana. At what point had he taken it?

"I think it's very beautiful." Tanjiro sighed. "I wish he would serenade me one day too."
